Luxury skincare worth the money. I have recently (over the past couple of years) become a skincare junkie. I love trying new skincare and it makes a huge difference in the appearance, elasticity, and texture of your skin. It’s really important to have a good base when applying makeup. If your skin is in bad shape your makeup won’t look as good. You have one face for your whole life so it’s a good idea to invest in products that will help you age gracefully.
Skincare can get costly. I wanted to create a review to break down my top 10 luxury skincare items. I’m editing everything down so that you are receiving the reviews to my top tried-and true luxury items. So let’s talk about luxury skincare worth the money.
10 luxury skincare items worth the money
Shiseido facial cotton: What I love about this. Cotton will never be the same. You know how cotton pads tend to rip when you put too much product on them or rub too hard? Not with these! Shiseido facial cotton is something I can no longer live without. I will never go back to regular cotton pads because these are just so much more luxurious and they hold up with products.
Tatcha water cream What I love about this. This cream leaves my face butter soft smooth. The first time I used it I woke up in the morning and couldn’t believe how soft my face was. I have never met a cream that left my face feeling so smooth, hydrated, and looking a few years younger. This is my new go-to facial cream.
Mac fix plus goldlite What I love about this. This makeup setting spray is so extra! It has gold flecks inside it which really makes my face glow. It doesn’t leave the face looking glittery or anything like that. It just gives a really pretty glow and I love it so much more than the regular fix plus.
SK-II facial treatment essence What I love about this. I have been using this for over a year now and it’s one of my most used and loved products. It really leaves my skin looking healthy and brighter. My skin is less red and blotchy and I wake up in the morning looking refreshed. I didn’t think that would be possible! This is truly a game changer.
Chanel illuminating base What I love about this. My favorite primer to use before makeup because it is creamy and illuminating. My foundation always looks beautiful when paired with this base. It’s great for the winter because it’s thicker and it works so well!
Saturday skin wide awake brightening eye creamWhat I love about this. I haven’t been using this for very long but oh my goodness it makes a difference! In my opinion, it’s really hard to find a good eye cream (I have tried so many). This stuff goes a long way because it comes in a big bottle and you only need to use a little bit of product. It makes my eyes look brighter, less puffy, and more awake. I noticed a difference immediately underneath my eyes- they are so much brighter and theres a subtle glow underneath my skin!
Sunday riley good genes What I love about this. This is a lactic acid treatment that I use at night time. It exfoliates your skin so that when you wake up in the morning you have new, healthy skin. It really helps with any discoloration or redness and my skin is so much more even toned. I usually buy one bottle every year!
Sunday riley luna sleeping oil What I love about this. This pairs perfectly with good genes. At first, I didn’t like it because I don’t like oils on my face. They make me break out and I don’t like the feeling of oil. I also had to get use to the smell. Fast forward a few months later, I decided to try this bad boy again. I realized I was using it the wrong way! I was putting this on after good genes and it’s suppose to be the other way around! First, I put this on my face after cleansing and let it soak in for a minute, then I place good genes on top of it. Huge difference!! My skin is more plump and youthful! Love it.
Paula’s Choice anti-redness exfoliating solution What I love about this. This stuff WORKS. Anytime that I see the smallest signs of a pimple I put this on my shiseido cotton pad and tap the product on top of the blemish. When I wake up in the morning it’s usually gone! If it’s a really bad pimple it will usually be mostly gone but may need to use the product for 2 days. I love this stuff!
Kiehl’s hydro-plumping re-texturizing serum What I love about this. This product really hydrates my skin and plumps it up prior to makeup. I use it every morning prior to putting on makeup. The texture feels like hydro-glycerin so it glides on to the skin easily and feels very soft and hydrating. I have talked about this product in other posts because I use it so much!
